Advise or Thread referrals: 1.8 liter engine rebuild / upgrade w/ stock L-Jet, I have a well maintained L-Jet that & would like to keep. Options

[pnewman]

The title says it all.

Looking for advise and or threads to help me make informed decisions regarding a possible future rebuild / upgrade of my 1.8 liter that has a very reliable and well maintained L-Jet injection.

I have heard 1911 is a good evolutionary step.
I have heard "2.0 liter max!"

I have heard not to go bigger than 2.0 liter as my FI system won't play nice with it.
...but I have heard that you can use the famed 2056 w/ mods. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)



I looked around the world but only found bits and pieces of info on doing 1.8 liter L-jet upgrades. I am sure that I overlooked a classic thread on this subject.

Any info or leads are appreciated.

LJet estimates the air coming in to the engine by the position of the flap on the AFM. DJet uses the vacuum that the engine is sending to the MPS. I have found LJet to be a much more flexible system. I think you can go to 2056 without trouble. Besides, it is air, not fuel that makes it lean. As long as you keep the intake stock, you probably don't have a problem.

True Dat': Another member has modified his air intake to feed his hungry beast (displacement) while upgrading the injectors. All whilst thru the L-Jet. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Looks like 2056 might be a simpler install but larger displacements seem to be possible with some mod's. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)


I wonder if anyone has dyno'd an upgraded engine utilizing the L-Jet.

Good Stuff (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif)
